Personally, I think that it was a high school bully. Sounds a lot like “CARRIE,” doesn’t it? Kid misses dog, puts fliers up, tells everyone she knows that her dog is lost, and some fuckhead finds (or kidnaps) the dog, only to kill the dog to torture her.

Those are the kinds of people who specifically target people like this. They think that they are somehow “endowed” with the “authority” and/or “power” to purposefully hurt people this way. They grow up to be Dick Cheney & Scooter Libby & Karl Rove, because none of the “adults” in their lives ever disabuse them of this notion. To the bottom-feeders of this world, that (bullying) is “survival of the fittest.”

Which explains why our gene pool smells like a urinal.

If/when they find the little motherfucker (you can use the real words around here, btw), I want to pull the gallows lever on his/her parents as well as the sadistic little monster who murdered the dog. Stretchy, wet rope for a long, slow, painful death, and mirrors set up so that the sick, sadistic bastards can “enjoy” watching themselves suffer for a nice little reversal.
